Ninja Ice House

Flying at low altitudes is not very safe.

Ninjas on the ground still have strong anti-air combat capabilities. Low-altitude and low-speed flying targets can easily become targets of concentrated fire if they cannot use their strength to quickly change their orientation.

After issuing the order with a voice signal, Gushan Bushui quickly landed near the bridge of the steel battleship and was welcomed in by the escort.

Let the captain continue to sit in the command position and issue orders, and use heavy artillery to attack the enemy's waters. It is not necessary to cause effective damage, but to disrupt the enemy's actions.

The busy adjutant passed on a series of orders from Gu Shan Bu Shui and then stood not far behind him, waiting for further instructions.

Frowning, he looked at Gu Shanbu Shui, who was in the thick fog outside the porthole, and asked thoughtfully:

"What's your name? You responded promptly and did a good job..."

He was aware of the boss's message at the first time, and decoded the code to stabilize his position. He was also able to organize the panicked teams and stabilize the line of defense. His contribution was certainly not small, and it is indispensable to reward him after the fact.

"My name is Yasukawa Zaihara, and I am the descendant of a servant who followed the master into the Fusagi family. My grandfather was a concubine of the branch family. Three generations have been working in the military defense system..."

"Oh? It can be considered as my family..."

Kosugi Bosui has many distant relatives. In the case of Yasukawa Zaihara, the genetic relationship is relatively close.

The relatives from my grandfather's line can be regarded as one of Gushan Bushui's important relies. Even if the amazing genius has not discovered them, there are still some who can be put to use.

Gu Shanbu Shui, who changed his attitude to a softer one, chuckled and said:

"Many people say that the essence of the Yasukawa family for hundreds of years has been concentrated in my father, Masaki Furusugi, and the rest are just a waste of time and money. Such ridicule is really too vicious. Geniuses are rare, and mediocre people who work hard are the only ones.

Normally, whether you can stand out depends on your performance at critical moments. You... are quite eye-catching."

Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. Talents like Yasukawa Zaihara who can do their job well are very rare.

"Young Master, Yasukawa Zaiyuan will not disappoint you and is willing to die for the family..."

"I remember it, no need to stress it. Go ahead and do your own thing. I hope to see your name in the subsequent evaluation report..."

There were so many servants surrounding Gu Shan and his son, most of whom were distant relatives, but there were only a few whose names Gu Shan Bu Shui could really remember.

The Togakure family, which started as a rich man, was the head of the local Shinto clan. In the eyes of the old-fashioned big shots, they were only a third-rate family. After joining the Yasukawa family, they actually started to show signs of rising.

Togakushi Hinode was able to be chosen as a "study partner" to go to the Konoha Village Ninja School with Furugi Bushi to "further study". He was really envious of others, and many people, big and small, tried to look familiar in front of Furugi Bushui.

There is no young master who is not jealous of me.

No matter how pretentious he is, it can't be compared to the promotion of the big shots above. Togakushi Hinode may have some talents and talents, but so what?

There are so many talents that have been buried, how many can come forward?

Who doesn't want to become the second "Togakushi Sunrise" and be attracted by Kosugi Bosui as his confidant?

The ecstatic Yasukawa Zaihara returned to his post despite the fiery attention of the crowd around him. He calmed down and, while contacting the officers on board each ship, shifted the focus of defense to the location of Gushan Bushui.

Forcibly suppressing the anxiety in his heart, Gu Shanbu Shui walked to the bow of the ship, facing the cold and moist sea breeze, sensing the movements of the enemy in the distance.

"Too slow! No wonder the daimyo side is not shy at all in a head-to-head confrontation. If they really try, they will be led by the nose."

The stupid and clumsy armed forces really cannot take advantage in the face of the stronger and more flexible ninjas. An army that is good at formation battles can easily be defeated by the ninja squad using special warfare and security warfare.

The fleet anchored in the port cannot exert its full strength, and the main guns of the battleships also have blind spots. Once the enemy seizes the loophole, it will be easily broken through.

It is very different from ordinary people's imagination of ocean-going giant ships that can set sail immediately as long as the captain gives the order. The preparation for a real giant ship to set sail is quite troublesome.

At the technological level of later generations, mainstream diesel-powered merchant ships would take nearly an hour from various inspections to warm-up and standby.

The current technological level of the ninja world has not reached that level, and the main engines used are not heavy oil-burning, but steam-powered ships and boilers, which is more troublesome in some aspects.

Compared with diesel engines, steam engines are mature technologies rather than backward technologies.

This point is very different from the perception of the general public. Diesel power, which appeared later, is not necessarily more advanced than steam engines, which appeared earlier. Both turbine technologies have their own advantages and disadvantages. Due to changes in ship development needs, diesel engines have occupied a leading position.

Although it is mainstream, steam turbine technology has not been eliminated. Instead, it has become increasingly important in some fields because of its advantages of not being picky about fuel, strong power, and high stability.

The technology of burning boilers cannot be eliminated as long as humans are active in the atmosphere and still use fossil energy.

The armed forces of the five large ships are very powerful, and their paper strength far exceeds that of the enemy. However, if a conflict actually occurs, the initiative is not in their own hands.

This is also the true contrast between the secular class led by the daimyo and the strength of the ninja village.

Only one-third of the Uchiha clan, who inherited the bloodline of the Six Paths Sage and had the talent of Sage Eyes, had the qualifications to become ninjas. At their peak, the number of Uchiha clan members who had awakened the Sharingan Eye did not exceed 2% of the ninjas in the clan.

Ten, most of the time, it hovers around ten percent.

This is still a serious genius family with the blood of gods flowing through it. The proportion of ninjas from other ethnic groups is definitely far inferior.

Except for a few ninjas, they are all mortal. In the face of secular force with absolute numerical superiority, they cannot afford to fight a war of attrition and a protracted war. But ninjas are not stupid, and they are also very proficient in strategies and tactics. They can attack with their own shortcomings.

The enemy's leader will not do stupid things. If you identify the weak points, you can also have the effect of making a huge difference.

This attack by the fog ninjas was obviously planned in this way. The organized escort was very threatening, and once the thick fog blocked the transmission of military orders, there was nothing to worry about.

The most effective method is, of course, to assassinate the nominal leader Gushan Bushui. As long as he beheads or captures the young family governor, almost the entire fleet is obtained, and a ransom can be extorted along the way.

The Konoha ninjas who understood this truth learned the whereabouts of their employer and quickly came closer. After not seeing each other for a while, the faces of Metkai, Shiranui Genma and Ebisu all looked a little ugly.

"It's really troublesome. I originally took the mission as an opportunity to take you on a tour and vacation. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing..."

Shiranui Genma responded calmly:

"Don't worry, we Konoha ninjas will not give up the mission. Now we need to figure out what the purpose of the enemy's attack is. If the target is us, it is the grudge between Konoha Village and Kirigakure Village. But if it is aimed at

The fleet is a bit strange!"

The Third Ninja World War has ended long ago. It cannot be said that there are no regular members of the Ninja Village as bandits and robbers. However, it is obviously abnormal to directly target big financial backers like the Fusagi family.

In full view of the public, it is impossible to completely block the news, and they will inevitably be held accountable afterwards. The targets of several Mist ninjas are too small to be dealt with, and the Hidden Mist Village and the Kingdom of Water cannot escape.

If something happens to Gu Shan Bu Shui, the Mist Ninjas will never be able to receive missions from the Fire Country. They will be made things difficult if they come to do business. Just relying on the support of the barren land of the Water Country, the Mist Ninjas will not be able to survive.

It will be sad.

"I wonder if the Young Master has any reliable information? Maybe we can help with it..."

Ebisu lost no time in asking, and Kosugi Fusui didn't hide anything:

"There are a total of nine mist ninjas who are above chunin, and two of them feel very dangerous. As for whether there are hidden enemies, it is still unknown. The main gun salvo just now, only the first round caused some losses to them who were caught off guard.

It’s just fire suppression from behind!”

It was because of the thick fog that obscured the sight that the cannon could not aim at all. It would have been difficult to hit the agile ninja. With such a blind shooting, one could only rely on luck.

Gushan Bushui does have a way to sense the approximate location of the opponent, but it is impossible for the governor of the Gushan family to go to the cannon in person. How would that be appropriate?

"Then...wait for reinforcements or negotiate with the other party?"

The upright Metkai asked kindly,

"The other party didn't attack directly, they just trapped us. Do they want to make demands?"

"Maybe!"

After hesitating for a while, Gusugi Bushui rejected the Konoha ninja's suggestion.

"The honor of the Gushan family does not allow me to sign an alliance under the city..."

"It's not that exaggerated..."

The taijutsu ninja with thick eyebrows and big eyes sneered and tried to deal with it.

"You are ninjas and you don't understand the weight of Gushan's name! I don't care what the other party wants to do. Since they come to provoke you, you must be prepared to be killed..."

As he spoke, the young governor suppressed his usual smile and gestured to the guards not far away. Someone immediately turned around and went to the deepest ammunition warehouse and took out several weird-looking cannon barrels.

"The Kosugi clan, praised for its kindness, is not just a deputy who rules the country through virtue. Some people always forget the true face of us great nobles. We have both compassion and prajna anger. It is unreasonable to kill people.

Blinking!"

Opening up the perception to the maximum, the smell of blood in the air floated from a distance. It was obvious that someone on the Mist Ninja side was injured, but they did not rush to retreat. Instead, the original joking mood turned into a desire to kill.

.

Gushan Bu Shui no longer hesitated, and asked several servants to adjust the position of the gun barrel, put a few fat and big guys that were obviously different from ordinary ammunition and rockets into it, and started to ignite it.

It was the first time that he was so angry, and he prepared for a large-scale "cleaning" without hesitation, without even thinking too much about possible accidental injuries. The young family governor really couldn't restrain his negative emotions.

Since you are honestly upgrading and killing monsters and farming, there will always be people who come to make trouble, so let’s give them some color.

The fuse was quickly burned to the end, and the special cannon barrels were arranged on the side of the ship, making a deafening roar and spreading out in a fan shape at the possible positions of the mist ninjas.

After the continuous explosions, the flying "shrapnel" fell to the water surface, and then experienced a second explosion. The quenched blue lead pellets, like a violent storm, completely enveloped the sea surface.

Regardless of whether there is Kirigakure Jutsu or not, it will not affect the display of its power.

The rising fireworks did not go out even when they fell on the sea. That was the secondary damage caused by the splashing of fire oil. If it were contaminated on a person, it would not be extinguished for a while, and it would not burn a big hole in the skin.

It may stop.

Sure enough, along with the continuous crackling and roaring of artillery shells, bursts of shrill screams came from the thick fog.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

By this time, the sun had set, the bright moonlight was shining, and the rolling thick fog gradually dissipated under the burning flames.

After the surrounding visibility began to recover, only the flames still floating on the sea, as well as a large piece of blood and a few pieces of tattered clothes proved that someone had been here before.

"Did you escape? You guys ran fast..."

Although there was thick fog blocking the line of sight, it was impossible to see clearly what was going on, but those movements could not deceive anyone. When Ebisu was exploring the battlefield, the eye holes behind his sunglasses could not help but shrink slightly, and half of them were broken.

The remains of his arms gradually sank into the deep sea just beside his feet.

Not far away, Shiranui Genma and Metkai were also trying their best to hide the shock in their hearts.

"Indiscriminate attacks and brutal clearing shells are a bit like Ruyulu Qianben, but the power and scope of the impact are ridiculously large."

Shiranui Genma stopped holding the thousand books in his mouth, squatted down slightly, and tapped the blood-foamed sea water a few times with his hand, proving that all this was really not an illusion.

One shell can kill all the enemies in the area within the scope of a large school grounds. There is no chance of survival for chuunin and below, and even unprepared jounin cannot escape. Like this...dozens of rounds will explode in the leaf village.

,The consequences could be disastrous!"

Of course, how to bring dangerous thermal weapons to Konoha Village without alerting Konoha ninjas is also an unsolvable problem. However, whether it can be done and whether it can be done are two completely different concepts.

.

It was also the first time that Gushan Bu Shui used cluster bombs to deal with ninjas. The effect was indeed good, but... it seemed too cruel.

"This thing is a trial work. It is made by hand and the cost is high. I would not be willing to use it unless I had to."

With the current level of technology in the ninja world, it is almost impossible to mass-produce truly powerful weapons. We can only use the power of ninjutsu to make up for the shortcomings of industrial development and create some "high-quality" weapons.

The one I just used is more effective than surprise. It's hard to say whether it can kill a Jonin. But it is really effective against Chunin who are of acceptable strength but not very powerful.

"No wonder... for nobles like you, most of the ninjas you hire are bodyguards. For the rest, your subordinates do the job for you, and they do a pretty good job..."

"You can't say that!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui said with a smile,

"In the war of the ninja world, we still need to rely on the power of the ninja village. If we just rely on us to gather the ninja army to fight positional warfare, it will be a lose-lose result..."

As for ninjas, general missions are very expensive, but if they buy their lives and go to the battlefield, they are very cheap. If a mercenary dies, they don't even need to pay a pension, so they are very suitable to be used as cannon fodder.
